How do you know when someone is flirting with you?

[Placebo]

Just wondering. :)

[AlCzervik]

1. in real life or here? in either case i have no clue.

[Placebo]

5. real life!

I too am clueless. :)

[AlCzervik]

10. ok then i really have no clue

[steve2470]

2. when she offers you $100 to sleep with her

No, seriously, when you notice they are.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

3. They look at you with those bedroom eyes

[Misunderestimator]

13. Like this?

[jonnyblitz]

47. damn. nt

[thom1102]

4. When they stick their tongue down your throat...

that is usually a good sign :silly:
Seriously, glances that last longer than they should, when they go out of their way to touch you, when they laugh at a joke that is only mildly funny. Those are some common ones, along with eye contact.

[steve2470]

7. LOL that was funny ! nt

[thom1102]

20. THANKS! nt

[jswordy]

29. When you feel a "stirring" in your "loins." LOL

[leftofthedial]

66. how about a "whisking" in your "loins"

or does it have to be literally and only a "stirring"?

[jswordy]

74. Well, it could also be a "tingle" in your "Pringle," I suppose!

[xmas74]

44. Hair tossing too.

When my hair was really long I did that all the time. I saw something on TLC that it was really common for a woman to do that too.

[arcos]

6. You just know

:P

[Technowitch]

26. Exactly.

If it's not obvious, it's probably not flirting.

[steve2470]

59. so, got any obvious examples Ms. Techno ?

:-)

[leftynyc]

8. Their eyes (eom)

[tjdee]

9. Not a clue, and men flirt less conspicuously I think.

I don't have a good flirt radar.
But women smile a lot, seem to perk up, all kind of little things.

[imenja]

48. men make it obvious when they are interested

and if they are, you know. They generally don't bother with subtlety.

[steve2470]

11. point of clarification: are you talking about straight women ?

or.........what ?

[Placebo]

18. Just...in general!

Don't question me. :)

[steve2470]

19. Look for twirling of hair and touching you w/straight women nt

[imenja]

49. self delete

oops, wrong place

[CubsFan1982]

12. It's like obscenity.

I know it when I see it. :D

[politicaholic]

14. Because when they look at you you can feel it.

plus courage raises and inhibition lowers.

[JimmyJazz]

15. When they go like this:

[steve2470]

16. I like that wagging tongue smiley, JJ :-) nt

[Placebo]

17. ...

:D

L

M

F

A

O

[Worst Username Ever]

21. Smiling and touching mostly.

And always laughing and having something to say.

[short bus president]

22. after the bartender shouts "last call,"

any further communication/interaction is flirting.

[progmom]

23. When they send you a DVD?

You finally got my hint?


I know I can get you to switch teams - just give me a chance!

[steve2470]

24. woohoo

[Placebo]

25. Oh yes you can!

I'd gladly switch teams if a regular stream of free DVDs was involved!!!

Yes, I am that cheap 'n easy. :D

[realisticphish]

27. I think we should go to the expert

Rev? has anyone seen Rev? :shrug:

[RevolutionaryActs]

28. I don't know... but I'm flirting with you right now....

;)

[Placebo]

30. Oh just great!

I didn't even know until you told me.

:cry:

[RevolutionaryActs]

31. Honey, I'm always flirting with you.

:7

:silly:

[Placebo]

34. ooooh

would you like to eat a blowpop or banana in my presence?

:silly:

:dunce:

[RevolutionaryActs]

35. LOL!

:P

[CubsFan1982]

40. Locking.

No sex threads! Unless I'm involved somehow. :P

[RevolutionaryActs]

41. Do we make you randy baby?

[CubsFan1982]

53. Um. Not HIM.

:P

[Blue-Jay]

32. They point at their crotch and scream "STICK IT IN!!!"

Anything less subtle than that I usually miss.

[Placebo]

37. same here!

man am i dense :dunce:

[redqueen]

33. When they ask you out / offer to give you their number.

[SarahB]

36. How do you know know when someone isn't flirting with you?

[Placebo]

38. thanks for blowing my mind!

:) + SarahBelle = :nuke:

[xmas74]

39. Harmelss flirting or "I want you" flirting?

[Placebo]

42. both

we'll take whatever we can get

[xmas74]

43. I harmlessly flirt w/ almost everyone

I've harmlessly flirted w/ a priest on ocassion-does that mean I want him? No.
The kind of meaningful flirting- I usually keep eye contact for at least 5 seconds, then look down shyly. It many times includes a slight touch-like a hand lightly laid on someone's arm, brushing closer to them, anything along those lines.
Now, do you need an ego boost? Do you need someone to flirt w/ you?

[4_Legs_Good]

45. Well, you know it's never with yvr girl UNLESS

everyone signs this petition (and soon!)

[Nikia]

46. I don't know and neither does my husband

It is a good thing that we just started dancing at a party and somehow ended up making out. If that hadn't happened, we probably would have been clueless and just been friends.

[Placebo]

52. HaHa!

What a classy and respectful story! :silly:

[imenja]

50. Here are a few signs

She pays very close attention as you speak. She may blush a bit, avert her eyes, and tends to smile a lot. She might twirl her hair.
She may tease, but generally in a gentle rather than a sharp way. Body language is important. Does she lean toward you or away? If two people mimic each others body language, there is an attraction. Body language is instinctual. Few people actually think about it, but it's a good trait to watch to see if someone is interested.

There are some women who are far more obvious in expressing their interest, but if you encounter one of them, you won't need to ask.

[trof]

51. When their tongue goes down your throat. Dead giveaway.

yep
;-)

[Joe Chi Minh]

54. How do you

not know, Placebo? You can't mistake it.

[Placebo]

56. Can't you though?

I also have horrible horrrrrrrrrrrible gaydar.

[Joe Chi Minh]

73. What would that be?

Gay radar? Funny. When I posted, I thought of the times I'd been given the glad eye by homosexuals.

[Wapsie B]

55. R/t it's the look in their eyes and the way they smile.

But here I'd have no idea. Well kinda, just hasn't happened to me.

[ZoCrowes]

57. Yeah I can't ever tell either

They usually have to hit me over the head to get me to realize it. Usually I am fucking oblivious.

[murray hill farm]

58. Just trust that you will know...

because u do know....dont question this knowing...if u think someone is flirting with you...they are..ha

[Placebo]

60. until you think they are...

and they aren't :P

[murray hill farm]

65. no...they were..ha

just chickened out when u responded.ha

[Schema Thing]

61. A tingly sensation in my pants....

caused by their leg... is a sign that even I can't be oblivious to.

[steve2470]

62. when they grab you in the crotch and say, Oh excuse me !

An female ex-boss of mine grabbed my ass at work one time when no one was looking. And didn't even say excuse me. The nerve !

[ronnykmarshall]

63. I look around

and find sniffa's hand on my ass.

[HEyHEY]

64. If she tells you "She thinks you're a good friend"

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

68. Dude - if she says "wanna see my underwear?" you freaking dolt!

God!

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

67. If you're me talking to someone

:)

Kidding of course

[TufNeck]

69. I wonder the same thing myself

n/t

[Huckebein the Raven]

70. When you find out the answer to that question,

:)

[JohnKleeb]
